From the Erasure CD that the Hubby got for me on my 35th birthday two Sundays ago… “Chains of Love,” which I first heard back in 1988…

How can I explain
When there are few words I can choose
How can I explain
When words get brokenDo you remember
There was a time
When people on the streets
Were walking hand in hand in hand
They used to talk about the weather
Making plans together
Days would last forever

Come to me, cover me, hold me
Together we´ll break these chains of love
Don´t give up, don´t give up
Together with me and my baby
Break these chains of love

Do you remember
Once upon a time
When there were open doors
An invitation to the world
We were falling in and out with lovers
Looking out for others
Our sisters and our brothers

Come to me, cover me, hold me
Together we´ll break these chains of love
Don´t give up, don´t give up
Together with me and my baby
Break these chains of love
Together we´ll break these chains of love

How can I explain
When there are few words I can choose
How can I explain
When words get broken

We used to talk about the weather
Making plans together
Days would last forever

Come to me, cover me, hold me
Together we´ll break these chains of love
Don´t give up, don´t give up
Together with me and my baby
Break these chains of love

If single-mothering were a paid job, I'd be rich. However, it doesn't, so I write (which doesn't pay the bills) and teach (which does). I'm overly-educated in the liberal arts, but that doesn't hinder my ability to be pragmatic and realistic. YAY.
